I haven't played with any of the new GC configuration options introduced in 2.067, but now need to. An application on watchOS currently has about 30 MB of RAM. Is there any more documentation than the web page https://dlang.org/spec/garbage.html or should I just browse druntime code?
I don't think there is more than that.
Also pointers (pun maybe) on finding who has the references keeping memory from being collected.
There is a "leak detector" in the GC compiled into it the with -debug=LOGGING, but I guess noone has been using it the last couple of years (and it seems to me it doesn't really do anything more than printing allocations).
I used -debug=PRINTF, -debug=PRINTF_COLLECT and -debug=PRINTF_TO_FILE in the past and grepped the resulting gcx.log. You might want to uncomment some printf in the mark function, too.
